Worth knowing before you fly
- Linate is much closer to central Milan than Malpensa, but the ramp takes aircraft only up to BBJ2/ACJ320 size and a 48-metre wingspan.
- Parking must be arranged before departure. Charges for stays over 72 hours rose sharply in July 2025, so check the cost of a long stay with the handler before quoting.
- September (Monza Grand Prix and Fashion Week) and April (the furniture fair) are the busiest periods; Universal Aviation advises starting arrangements well ahead.
- The airport is open around the clock, but the general aviation offices close between 21:00 and 22:00 local, and night customs is on request only.
